Source for these bolts

Does anybody know what these bolts are called and where to source them? I've always called them continuous thread bolts but a Google search with that name comes up empty. I need new ones to bolt the intake onto my P400.

Any help will be appreciated.

Thanks.DSC_0338 - Copy.jpg

Valve cover stud?
Yes, the valve cover threads are M8-1.25, but I need some M10-1.5 in various lengths to bolt down the intake I got from you. Not wanting to scavenge anything off my original 6.2. Somebody has them available, but I cannot find them anywhere. Heck I don't even know what they are called.

What lengths do you need? And how many. I might have some on the shelf in coffie cans.

Ken - do you think you have metric bolts? All of the 1980's 6.2 and early 1990's 6.5 were SAE thread. This new P400 is all metric.

Yeah I get a lot of stuff from McMaster. Sadly they do not have the stud bolts. Still looking. I think I am going over to the HMMWV forum and post something over there. Maybe somebody is parting out a GEP engine and I can get the metric bolts.

Ken - here is a photo of the intake bolts I need. They are M10-1.5 and are approximately 60mm (2-1/4") under the hex head. Because the bolts are metric they will need to come from a newer GEP engine, not an older 6.2 or 6.5 when they still used SAE threaded bolts. If you have any of these, or know where I can source them, I will need 4.

Thanks.
